Domino improvement - replacement fence and depth locking knobs
I just watched this video .....Save time with this Domino hack! - YouTube and while I have not had fence drift I thought they were a great idea so I used the link provided and ordered them. I got an email back saying due to export regulation they had to cancel my order. I sent them a scathing email explaining I have never had trouble ordering from a US company, "why are you different"
So I took out a MyUS membership and for those who don't know they provide a US address and then ship that item to Australia. Bizarrely they cancelled my order again explaining shipping to MyUS and then shipping to Australia was against export regulations. So I then gave up.
Here's what I ordered ...5101K621_Plastic Adjustable-Position Handle.PDF
Any Australian company make these?

Commonly known as a Kipp handle and McMaster Carr do not export stuff for anyone. I may have caused that because I ordered something and it became a huge problem for reasons I can't recall. Find the thread details and order one from Ebay.

Thanks guys, that really helped
I'm so glad there are Aussie companies that make these. Mannetje, North east has just about every size so I will order. I didn't know what they were called and a simple google found heaps.
Chris, the attitude of McMaster Carr really p'd me off. The fact that they wouldn't even send to a USA address through MyUS claiming export regulations is complete and utter BS. I've ordered from Woodpeckers, Rockler, Taytools and many others without a problem

I understand your reaction but they can choose to do whatever they want. I recently had to buy a few small springs from them and while doing that with the help of a friend in the US found out that even US customers have problems buying from them for a few different reasons. Despite all that they are the go to place for hardware in the US.
